No, bromine is not the same as baquacil. Bromine is a chlorine alternative, probably more expensive, effective as a sanitizer. Can result in odors as with chlorine and there are arguements about its safety, health wise.
No, Baquacil is Hydrogen Peroxide.
To measure chlorine in a Baquacil pool, you can use a test kit specifically designed for non-chlorine pools. These kits typically test for the sanitizer levels in Baquacil pools, such as hydrogen peroxide and peroxide-based products. Follow the instructions on the test kit to accurately measure the sanitizer levels in your Baquacil pool.
Calcium
Bromine 81 has 35 electrons, which is the same number of electrons as a neutral bromine atom since it is the most common isotope of bromine.
No, Selenium has 6 valence electrons while Bromine has 7. You can determine this because on the periodic table, Selenium is in Group VI while Bromine is in group VII.
Bromine-35 refers to an isotope of bromine that has an atomic mass of 35 atomic mass units. It is one of the stable isotopes of bromine, with approximately 75% natural abundance. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei.
Yes, "Baquashock", "Baquacil Shock", and "Baquacil Shock and Oxidizer" are all synonymous. Baquacil has been changing the names through the evolution but it's the same product. Most companies are now selling it as "Oxidizer (Shock)" - http://www.backyardexpress.com/baquaspa-oxidizer-shock.html
A major DO for Baquacil is chemically cleaning the filter MONTHLY.

No, you should not use any flocculants (flocs) in a Baquacil pool, as they can interfere with the Baquacil system and lead to cloudy water or other issues. Baquacil is a hydrogen peroxide-based sanitizer, and using incompatible products can disrupt the chemical balance. For best results, stick to Baquacil-approved products and follow the manufacturer's guidelines for water treatment.
Br (Bromine) is a period 4 element in the same group as F.

Go to the site link bellow for a guide to converting from baquacil to chlorine. Keep in mind that if you have a sand filter you will have to also change the sand in it as it will harbor traces of baquacil.
That means Chlorine was added before the Baquacil readings had reached zero.
no the do not bromine has 4 and oxygen has 2
Yes, you can shock a pool that uses Baquacil, but it requires special attention. Standard chlorine shock treatments cannot be used, as they can react negatively with Baquacil, which is a non-chlorine sanitizer. Instead, you should use a non-chlorine shock specifically designed for Baquacil systems to effectively manage water clarity and sanitation without causing damage. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions when shocking a Baquacil pool.
Sanitation (chlorine, bromine, Baquacil, algaecide, etc) and filtration
I have been using Baquacil for 18 years in an in-ground pool. I used chlorine in an above ground pool prior. The cost difference is obvious. Starting off new, Baquacil is very expensive. As the years go on, the cost of the sanitizer drops dramatically because of the baquacil buildup in the water. You dont have the chlorine smell and the eye burning. I recommend washing the baquacil from your hair since the hair tends to get heavy after swimming. Foaming is also a problem with baquacil. I still prefer baquacil and intend to use it after I install a new liner next year.
